In an interview with CNBC\u2019s Fast Money, Novogratz predicted that Bitcoin \u201ccould be at $40,000 by the end of 2018.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lest you think Novogratz is merely a speculative shock-jock, he has a track record of successful predictions in the crypto-marketplace. In October, on the same show, Novogratz publicly predicted Bitcoin\u2019s ascension to $10,000. However, even Novogratz couldn\u2019t predict how rapidly Bitcoin would achieve this milestone.<\/p>\n<h2>Optimism Fuels More Optimism<\/h2>\n<p>Bitcoin\u2019s $10,000 achievement is only fueling continued and greater confidence in the currency. Novogratz attributes his optimism to Bitcoin\u2019s limited supply of 21 million coins. Because additional Bitcoins will not be produced, it creates opportunities for investors to continually speculate on the value without a supply response to influence the market.<\/p>\n<p>There is a global demand for cryptocurrency with citizens from powerful countries including Japan, South Korea, and the U.S. making productive investments in Bitcoin. With so many people pursuing a single commodity, its value is naturally escalating quickly. In this way, crypto-investment is a unique investment opportunity with a surprisingly resilient upside, which Novogratz plans to exploit.<\/p>\n<h2>Novogratz as a Crypto Investor<\/h2>\n<p>Novogratz isn\u2019t a passive commentator. He\u2019s putting his money where his mouth is. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2017\/11\/27\/bitcoin-could-easily-reach-40000-by-the-end-of-2018-novogratz.html\">CNBC<\/a>,<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cDuring a mid-November plunge of more than 20 percent in Bitcoin\u2019s price, Novogratz said he bought $15 to $20 million worth of the digital currency.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5941\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5941\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-5941\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/mike-novogratz-ethereal-300x137.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"137\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/mike-novogratz-ethereal-300x137.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/mike-novogratz-ethereal.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5941\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">At the a conference in New York in June 2017, Novogratz says that cryptocurrencies could become a $5 trillion industry, but they need to develop sound business principles to satisfy regulators and lend legitimacy.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Before embarking on crypto-investment, Novogratz made billions as a hedge fund manager at Fortress Investment Group. Unfortunately, he endured an ungraceful exit from the traditional investment world, and, after Fortress Investment Group\u2019s stock declined, Forbes estimated his net worth to be around $500 million.<\/p>\n<p>Novogratz explains that he diversifies his crypto investment between Bitcoin and Ethereum, with roughly 50\/50 holdings in the two currencies. Last month, he joined the board of advisers for a cryptocurrency exchange focusing on Bitcoin\u2019s rival currency, Ethereum.<\/p>\n<p>He has <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/mike-novogratz-500-million-crypto-hedge-fund\/\">committed $150 million of his own money to the project<\/a>, and he\u2019s currently raising capital to finish funding the project. The project is a notable second act that is capitalizing on the profitability and diversity of the crypto-ecosystem.<\/p>\n<h2>Following Sound Advice<\/h2>\n<p>In spite of his optimism, Novogratz is quick to caution investors against placing all of their investments in cryptocurrencies. For most investors, Novogratz recommends limiting crypto-investment to 3% of an individual\u2019s net worth, and more affluent investors should limit their investments to under 10%.<\/p>\n<p>Crypto markets frequently endure wild price fluctuations, and these rapid swings can significantly impact overly aggressive investors. Even so, in a profile by Bloomberg Novogratz revealed that 20% of his net worth is now invested in cryptocurrencies.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout its rise, Bitcoin has been subject to continual skepticism as investors try to determine if its increase is the result of a bubble or because of developing market trends. So far, the optimists have won out as its value continues to climb. In September, Novogratz told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2017-09-26\/mike-novogratz-is-set-for-comeback-with-crytocurrency-hedge-fund\">Bloomberg<\/a>,<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u00a0\u201cThis is going to be the largest bubble of our lifetimes\u2026you can make a whole lot of money on the way up, and we plan on it.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>With each new milestone, investors wonder if this is the bubble\u2019s breaking point or just another breath of fresh air. Concerns of a Bitcoin bubble are indeed troubling, but with investors like Novogratz expressing such profound optimism while also committing so much of his actual money to the currencies, it\u2019s not too far-fetched to believe that one day $10,000 will seem like a minor milestone.<\/p>\n<div class=\"grammarly-disable-indicator\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It finally happened.
